We may be nearly there!!!

Oh the joy of thinking that you are finally getting somewhere!!! I love so many names that are becoming far too popular - Isabella, Ava and Sophia and then there is finding names that hubby likes!!! Then there is also finding an Indian middle name that goes with the fn and that can be pronounced easily in the western world......So - I think we are making some headway!!!!

Aside from Alexander all the other names are right up my alley. Sophia was "claimed" by my cousin so that was out (although I was still tempted!) I have an Ava, I used Isobel as a middle name, and Esme was a consideration for this last baby. Lorelei wasn't on my charts for kid names, but Ava and I chose Lorelei as the name of her build-a-bear animal. Gabriel was our top boy name for two children, before my husband fell in love with Henrik. If Ava or Mia had been a boy they would've been Gabriel without a doubt.

Gabriel is definitely my favorite for a boy, but I can't pick between Lorelei and Esme. I love them both equally, especially the middle names!

Not so done having children after all. We're not ready for TTC quite yet but when we do get pregnant,the husband handed sole naming rights over to his name obsessed wife!

I have a Gabriel, so yes, I am biased in favour of that one. I went to school with an Anjali as a child, always loved her name, and have never met or heard of another. Only I'd put EsmeAnjali together, just personal taste.
